it's ok, we are your friends on here....we DO hope you're OK, OK?!

so spill the grime. how did this little adventure happen

don't worry we won't slag you (much) if it was a dumb moment, we've all done plenty of those.

like the time my buddy and I were playing "toss the swiss army knife into the lawn" with 2 blades out. did that for a while, then forgot about the knife in the grass. than we're wrestling on the ground, I spin away and AAAK, land on the knife. lucky for me it just went thru the meat of my palm and didn't nick anything really important... :

Wow... that was a dumb moment.

Can't say I've really had any that bad... but I'll keep thinking.

 
I was trying to stop a robbery at DUnkin Dognutz and took a knife for the eastern european girl behind the counter...

ok...

I was cutting a cable tie and when it gave way, my leg was, well, the next item in line. Whoops. All good now... just one friggin' sore leg and some battle scarred jeans.

 
dint' chew know zip ties are DANGEROUS ??!!

ya do now! 8)

I have some Kevlar chaps to wear while chainsawing....mebbe you should price a pair!?

You know... For a moment I did consider whipping out the Motorola RAZR and snappin' a pic of the river of blood... but, due to the amount of blood leakage, I opted to pad it, apply pressure and get my azz to teh hospital. It's happily bandaged up till tomorrow afternoon. I'll take a pic of teh sewn up wound.

Or

You could come to teh BS & Beer meet on thursday and i'll just wear shorts.

 
Pics! ;D

I don't feel so bad about my incodent now.

I was installing a radio into a toyota. While trying to squeez the tin frame together so it would fit better inside the dash my hand slipped and one of the jagged edges raced across my wrist. It spurted and sprayed just like in the movies. 12 stitches, Yay! It was cool. ;D

Glad you're ok Mike!

 
Well, my wife reminded me of my own stupid moment.

12 years old, swiped my brothers' bike and took it for a spin. There were some rock ledges in the yard next door we used as "ramps" and bunny hopped off. Well, there was also a pile of scrap metal. Long story short, took a dive into the pile. Next thing I remember, I'm running home with my oldest brother, flinging blood everyone because I was whipping my hand around to get rid of the pain.

Turns out I slit my wrist from my palm to my watch area. Got sewn up, just to develop a pseudo anurism (sp) later on. Blood clotted, and doctors had to replace my vein in my hand with one from my ankle, or I'd lose my ring & pinky fingers on my left hand.

Good times.

Glad to hear you are doing well!

Mike, the next time it happens to you, go to the Brighton Ave. walk-in clinic thing. Much faster and less like 'ER' with homeless people sleeping it off on stretchers in the hallway.

I found this out after I stuck my foot underneath my -running- lawnmower. Maine Med ER told me it would be a few hours and to just go to Brighton Ave. Waited only 20 minutes there.

y'know, the next time you stab yourself in the leg.

 
My friends call me Stumpy.

Actually, I had a vet reattach my foot. Now it's getting kinda funky and I'm going to Thailand to buy a new one. You can buy anything there.

Reference to a tv show probably no one here watches.

No, really, I just broke my big toe. I kicked at the plastic guard and the blade recoiled back at my toe. No blood, just pain. After it happened, I finished mowing and even broke out the weed whacker. It was starting to rain and I had to get it done. Adrenaline, I guess.

 
I'll remember to go to Brighton Ave next time I stab myself. But you're right... it was homeless people on stretchers in the hallway... I felt a bit out of place.
